Interesting Shops

All and Herbs, Spices, Rice Noodles etc. for a little less than £20 - This little lot will last us months....

We’re not adverse to popping into unpromising looking shops, in fact it’s a bit of a hobby when we get out! We’ve used this shop a couple of times when we’ve had hospital appointments as it’s a bit out of the way to pop in regularly. ‘Bigger isn’t always better’ isn’t appropriate here – If we’re going to use these pulses anyway why not get the 1Kg bags for the same price as the supermarket would charge for 200g? We also managed to get some Pappadoms to fry or microwave as required. When we do Chinese we often spend £1 for a pack of 10 and usually don’t manage to eat them all.

But the prize here is the Tamarind concentrate. (Not in the picture - sorry) We’re cobbling together a Pork loin recipe for tonight…...

Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

We had a pack of Portobello Mushrooms which were coming to the end of there life. So this was Sue’s take on stuffed Mushrooms.

Ingredients:-

2 Mushrooms per person
Mozzarella Cheese, cubed
2 Spring Onions, finely chopped
1 Shallot, Sliced
2 Cloves of Garlic, grated
Grated Italian style Cheese
Mixed Herbs
Margarine

Method:-

(1) Remove the stem from the Mushrooms and use a spoon to scrap out the gills.
(2) Sauté the Shallot, Garlic and Mushroom stems etc. in Margarine into softened.
(3) Place back in the cups.
(4) Sprinkle with the Spring Onions.
(5) Spread the Mozzarella over.
(6) Place in a foil lined tray and pop in the oven for 15 minutes.
(7) Sprinkle with Herbs and Italian style Cheese and place under the grill for a further 5 minutes.

We served these as a side with Allspice seasoned Pork ribs and a little home made Potato salad. For what looks like a very lite meal this was surprisingly filling.
